It seems that the witch's task had been cancelled due to unforseen circumstances. He looked again over at the poster in his hand. Was he really contemplating this? Andras would never let him hear the end of it if she found out. [color=007fff]"Y'know what, screw it..."[/color] Brutus said, sighing. He could sure as hell check in on someone he'd come to respect, and Diana had earned his respect at the whole tournament fiasco. So, the text he sent was short and to the point while trying to be sympathetic. [color=007fff][i]Hey, Diana. It's Brutus. I would say I hope you're well, but I am sure that's out of the question at the moment. I wanted to check up on you and make sure you're okay. Have you heard about the ball that's being held? Andras tells me I need to be social and find someone to go with, and I figured I'd check and see if you were interested. Either way, I'm sorry things ended this way, but I hope you find peace and can get better."[/i][/color] Was it awkward? Yeah, as Brutus still wasn't used to socializing as much outside of Andras. Did she count? She tended more to talk [i]at[/i] Brutus, especially when she was in a ranty mood... Yeah, she counted. She was one of the few Brutus truly trusted to have his back no matter what. Perhaps he could make another friend out of the witch who'd requested their help...

He held gripped in his hand a poster, one that everyone had seen. He had that particular week of the event free, as his parents were on a mission for a high-profile client, and would be gone for a while on a long-term capture mission. As such, Yuuto decided that he would take this rare opportunity to try and have some fun. So, he'd decided to visit the closest thing he had to a friend, which was Bak. Yuuto knocked on the door to what he was sure was the room where she slept. He'd checked her actual dorm, but had gotten no answer. [color=lavender]Bak-[i]san[/i]? Is Yuuto. You hear of ball, yes? Was wondering if you would want to go together as friend?"[/color] Yuuto asked after knocking to try and get her attention.
